First Place in Yearling - Bitch, Judge: Mrs. Liz Wright (Totherend)
My thanks to Driffield Championship Dog Show Society for the invitation to judge today and thanks to my stewards Peter and Lesley Armstrong, who kept the ring running smoothly. Thanks also to the exhibitors for allowing me to go over their dogs. Front movement in the breed still needs some improvement, but overall I had lots of quality exhibits. Bites were good and only one kinked tail.
Another one I have always admired. A pleasure to go over, with wonderful blue and tan coat, thick pelt, flat ribs, of good size, weight, and overall balance. Couldn’t fault her and she had the ‘look at me’ attitude to take Bitch CC and Best of Breed.
